1	So you're seeing a movie and the trailers roll. An upcoming comedy film is given a sneak preview and...did the character just mention the movie you're about to see?
2
3	This trope applies to special trailers or commercials played before select movies, sometimes acknowledging the film they're attached to.

10	* A TV spot for ''Film/Godzilla1998'' that aired during the series finale of ''Series/{{Seinfeld}}'' had the message "It's time to say goodbye to something that holds a special place in out hearts...", before cutting to the words "NEW YORK" and the monster destroying the city.
11	* An AIG commercial that aired during the series finale of ''{{Series/Friends}}'' had a female announcer say "A 10 year run? Pretty Good. But an 85 year run. Downright impressive."

17	* The trailer for ''WesternAnimation/BrotherBear'' was attached to the release of ''WesternAnimation/FindingNemo''. In the trailer, Rutt and Tuke say that if you're only seeing one movie this year, see ''Brother Bear'' and leave the theater. Rutt says that he sees some of them leaving, but Tuke thinks they're "going to find that Nemo guy" (though other versions of the trailer have him saying that he thinks we're going to the bathroom).
18	* A trailer for ''WesternAnimation/MonstersInc1'' played before ''[[Film/HarryPotterAndThePhilosophersStone Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone]]'' had Mike and Sully playing charades and Sully tries to act out Harry Potter to Mike, who keeps [[ComicallyMissingThePoint missing the point]]. The ending shows that the film is "Now showing at a theater near you. Really near you. Like, maybe, right next door", as the film was already playing in theaters and ''was'' probably in another theater in a given multiplex.
19	* The teaser trailer for ''WesternAnimation/ChickenLittle'', which played before ''Film/TheHitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy2005'', was a TrailerSpoof that opened with a parody of ''Hitchhiker'''s own teaser.
